    OUT! Caught. Anshul Kamboj to Lungi Ngidi. Length ball, wide outside off stump on the front foot Slog, thick edge in the air uncontrolled to short third man, caught by Singh. That is it.

It is now back-to-back losses for Delhi Capitals, and they will need to regroup quickly going forward. Sanju Samson is the Player of the Match.
